00:16Five passengers set sail that day for a three-hour tour, a three-hour tour
00:24The weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed
00:30If not for the courage of the fearless crew, the minnow would be lost, the minnow would be lost
00:37The ship's aground on the shore of this uncharted desert isle

05:59Gilligan could buy you a whole fleet of ships

17:19Who's out here?
17:42Just me, Skipper.
17:46Gilligan, what in the name of the Seven Seas are you doing?
17:49I'm tired of thinking, Skipper.
17:50I don't want to be king.
17:51I don't want to chop off your head.
17:52Huh?
17:53I'm not cut out to be a Howell.
17:54I don't want to disappoint you.
17:56But I don't want to be rich and I don't want to be famous.
17:57I just want to be me.
17:58Are you mad?
17:59No, I'm not mad.
18:01Every man has a right to be himself.
18:03Even a Gilligan.
18:04Thanks, Skipper.
18:05Have you told the Howells yet?
18:06Well, that's the problem.
18:07I can't.
18:08Why not?
18:09Because they went to someone's trouble trying to make me what I should be.
18:11But now they believe that's what I am.
18:12And I don't know how to tell them I'm not.
18:15Gilligan, first they broke the mold and then they made you.
18:18Skipper, I can't hurt their feelings no matter what.
18:21Well, you know, little buddy, in spite of yourself, you're still apt to wind up being king.
18:24But I think I have an answer to your problem.
18:26You do?
18:27Certainly.
18:27With a little brain power and a little intelligence, I think I know exactly what to do to solve the problem.
18:31What?
18:32Real ass the professor.
18:33Come on.
18:35Yes, I think I have the answer.
18:37I told you the professor would know.
18:39You were right.
18:40What's the answer?
18:41When it comes to being tricky, ask a woman.
18:47And you're willing to get up all day?
18:49So we can be friends like we used to be before I get rich and famous.
18:52Oh, well, I think we owe Gilligan a thanks.
18:54I think he should have his head examined.
18:56That's what you want, Gilligan.
18:58Hey, I got an idea.
19:00Huh?
19:00Listen.
19:08Gee, I sure am excited.
19:09How do I look?
19:10Oh, you look wonderful, I must say.
19:12Hey, you know your debut is going to be the social event of the season.
19:15Is Mrs. Howell busy making the last-minute preparations?
19:18Uh-huh.
19:18And dear old dad, how much do I get for my allowance?
19:21I beg your pardon?
19:22Oh, like all the rich kids get.
19:23How does $10,000 a month hit you?
19:24$10,000 a month?
19:26Well, that's more than I give Mrs. Howell for her pin...
19:29We'll talk about it later.
19:31Hello.
19:32Well, isn't it great?
19:33You know, dear old dad, I'm going to need that money for one thing or another.
19:36Am I one thing, honey?
19:37No, you're another.
19:38Promise the kid $50,000 for a new play when we get back home.
19:41You do what?
19:42Ginger, we forgot the special dessert.
19:44Oh, we'll be right back.
19:46Anyway, dear old dad, I can pick up extra newt anytime I want.
19:50Right, Skip?
19:51No!
19:53You're a tough cookie, G-thirsten.
19:55We own the minnow now.
19:56You own the minnow?
19:57Yep, won the old tub and a card game last night.
20:00Moral is, you can't judge a dumb kid by his cover.
20:02You're a real hustler, one of the greats.
20:05A Howell, a hustler?
20:06I think.
20:07Let me get your stool here, dear old dad.
20:11Ha-ha!
20:12Ace of spades, eh?
20:13So, Howell LeFourth cheats at cards.
20:16Oh, a scandal for shame.
20:18Well, what have you got to say for yourself, you low-lying sea serpent?
20:21Nothing.
20:22A sea serpent can't talk.
20:23Martinis, anyone?
20:24Yes, I could use a drink.
20:25I'm frankly astonished at this ghastly metamorphosis.
20:28Oh, never mind that.
20:29What about my boat?
20:30Oh, keep your old boat.
20:31See if I care.
20:32Dear old dad will buy me another one.
20:33Won't you, dear old dad?
20:34Oh, I could kill myself.
20:37I may climb up on top of my money and jump off.
20:40Gin.
20:42And some vermouth.
20:45There you go.
20:45Now, here you are, Professor.
20:53Sensational, huh?
20:54I'm afraid it's a bit dry.
20:56Are you telling me one of my perfect martinis is too dry?
20:59Yes.
21:00Don't you realize that Howell's making martinis for generations?
21:02It's too dry.
21:03You're insulting the family traditions.
21:05Never mind that, Gilligan.
21:06Make him another drink.
21:08I will.
21:10He wants a nice, wet martini.
21:13I'll give him a nice, wet martini.
21:16Here we go.
21:17Nice, wet martini.
21:21Here you are, Professor.
21:24Just the way you like it.
21:25Nice and wet.
21:27No, Gilligan!
21:29Buy me a new suit, dear old dad.
21:30Heavens, I've created a Frankenstein.
21:32Mr. Howell, I find the behavior of your son and heir shocking and disgraceful.
21:36Don't forget obnoxious.
21:37Yes, I may strike G. Thirst and Howell the Fourth,
21:41only in his mood he may strike back.
21:44Surprise!
21:46Surprise for Gilligan's coming out party.
21:48Ginger specialty, a coconut cream pie.
21:50We could use a pleasant moment right now.
21:53You brought me a coconut cream pie?
21:56Yes, Gilligan.
21:56You know, it was hard to make cream from coconut...
21:58Don't you know my grandmother fed me coconut cream
22:00morning, noon, and night when I was little?
22:02Pretend it's Loganberry, then.
22:04But it's not Loganberry.
22:06It's coconut cream!
22:09Stop!
22:09Don't hit your ginger with that pie!
22:12I didn't.
22:15Excuse me, everyone.
22:16I would like a word with Gilligan.
22:20Don't you mean G. Thirst and Howell the Fourth?
22:22No.
22:23I mean...
22:25Gilligan!
22:33The name Howell has always stood for Elan.
22:35Stood for style.
22:37Noblesse oblige.
22:39Don't forget money.
22:40Money means power.
22:41And with power comes responsibility in your behavior toward others.
22:45I sure missed the boat, huh?
22:46You were unbelievable.
22:47You were crude.
22:48You were rude.
22:49You were boorish.
22:50And don't forget obnoxious.
22:51I really was obnoxious.
22:52And don't forget dishonest and vulgar.
22:54You were very vulgar.
22:56Who were you?
22:57Okay, Mr. Howell.
22:58You don't have to say any more.
22:59I understand.
22:59You don't want to be my father anymore.
23:01I'm sorry, Gilligan.
23:02I really am.
23:03And when we get back home, you'll be rewarded.
23:05Guess you just weren't cut out to be a Howell.
23:09No heart-feeling, boy.
23:10No, sir.
23:11I think you know best.
23:11Oh, Thurston, couldn't you have given him one more chance?
23:25He didn't want one.
23:26That boy is all heart.
23:28Not a bad actor, either.
23:30He's an actor?
23:31Yes, my dear.
23:35You're welcome, sir.
23:36You're welcome.
23:38I'm sorry.
23:39I'm back.
23:39You're welcome.
23:40Oh, Thurston, he really didn't want to be a Howell, did he?
23:47No, it's incredible.
23:48He didn't want to be a Howell, but he didn't want to hurt our feeling.
23:51You're a marvelous judge of human nature, dear.
23:53Well, above all, I'm a Howell, which is synonymous with being astute, generous, charming, kind, and handsome.
23:59And above all, modest.
24:07It sure is nice to be wearing my own clothes again.
24:10Oh, it's nice having you back, little buddy.
24:12When I was G. Thurston Howell IV, I had to be neat and clean and everything.
24:15I know.
24:15That must have been murder.
24:16Here, let me dirty you up a little.
24:18Huh?
24:19Oh, thanks, sir.
24:20Thanks, sir.
24:20You know, it's all right for the Howells to be a Howell, but it's just too tough for anyone else.
24:24One question.
24:25Who was it placed that net over the quicksand down by the spring?
24:28Well, I did, Mr. Howell.
24:29I was afraid somebody might forget about the quicksand.
24:31Well, your quick thinking saved Mrs. Howell's life.
24:33That's great.
24:34Did you hear that, Skipper?
24:35What do you mean, Skipper?
24:36From now on, it's S. Thurston Howell, the fifth.
24:39What?
24:40You heard me, son.
24:41Oh, but Mr. Howell, this is not...
24:43Dad.
24:43Come on, Mr. Howell.
24:44Dear old dad.
24:45Oh, now, please, Mr. Howell.
24:46Dad, do what?
24:47Okay, Mr. Howell.
24:49Come on, Mr. Howell, Mr. Howell.
24:51Oh, no, yes, no.
24:58Now, this is a tale of our castaways.
25:02They're here for a long, long time.
25:05They'll have to make the best of things.
25:07It's an uphill climb.
25:09The first mate and his skipper, too, will do their very best
25:13to make the others comfortable in the Tropic Island nest.
25:17No phones, no lights, no motor cars, not a single luxury.
25:22Like Robinson Crusoe, it's primitive as can be.
25:26So join us here each week, my friends, you're sure to get a smile
25:30for seven stranded castaways here on Gilligan's Isle.
